enumerate -> enumerates

Drop the 'yet'.

But this raises a question: should this flag only be supported by drivers
that can actually return different format lists depending on this flag?

Or can it be supported as well by a driver where this makes no difference?

I'm inclined to limit it to drivers that actually can return different
results. If nothing else, that will indicate to the application that this
is actually possible.

If we agree on that, then that should be documented as well.
